Return of an Unclean Spirit

24 (A)“When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through (B)waterless places seeking rest, and finding none it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ 25 And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order. 26 Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there. And (C)the last state of that person is worse than the first.”

24 When an unclean spirit leaves a person, it wanders through dry places looking for a place to rest. But it doesn’t find any.

They go in and make their home there. That person is worse off at the end than at the beginning.”
